S3E10: Michael Kelley: The Whole Story for the Whole Family

Amy and Mike talk to author Michael Kelley about his new devotional book for families! Parents are called to be the primary spiritual influence in the lives of their children. That means we, as parents, should help them know and understand the Bible so they can know, love, and understand God and His Son, Jesus. But so many parents feel overwhelmed and exhausted at the thought of discipling their children. Where to begin? “The Whole Story for the Whole Family” is a step in the right direction. In an easy-to-use and simple format, this devotional guide will equip parents to start teaching their children the Bible. Rather than seeing the Bible as a mis-matched collection of random stories about different characters in history, your kids can see the Bible as one story, woven throughout space and time, with one character standing at the center: Jesus. Through the use of an object lesson every day, digestible sections of Scripture, and simple discussion questions, “The Whole Story for the Whole Family” can help kids understand God's ongoing story and find their place in it. Michael Kelley is a husband and father of three who lives in Nashville, Tennessee, where he serves as the Sr. Vice President of Church Ministries for LifeWay Christian Resources. He is also the author of “Wednesdays Were Pretty Normal: A Boy, Cancer, and God”, “Boring: Finding an Extraordinary God in an Ordinary Life”, and “Growing Down”.
